This excerpt taken from the PRVT DEF 14A filed Nov 3, 2009. General If the reverse stock split proposal is approved and implemented, the principal effect will be to proportionately decrease the number of outstanding shares of our common stock based on the reverse stock split ratio selected by our Board of Directors. Our common stock is currently registered under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and we are subject to the periodic reporting and other requirements of the Exchange Act. The reverse stock split will not affect the registration of our common stock under the Exchange Act or the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Global Market. Following the reverse stock split, we expect that our common stock will continue to be listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol PRVT. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of the holders of our common stock will not be affected by the reverse stock split, other than as a result of the treatment of fractional shares by rounding them up to the nearest whole share, as described below. For example, a holder of 5% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock immediately prior to the effectiveness of the reverse stock split will generally continue to hold 5% of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our common stock after the reverse stock split. The number of shareholders of record will not be affected by the reverse stock split. If approved and implemented, the reverse stock split may result in some shareholders owning odd lots of less than 100 shares of our common stock. Odd lot shares may be more difficult to sell, and brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd lots are generally somewhat higher than the costs of transactions in round lots of even multiples of 100 shares. Our Board of Directors believes, however, that these potential effects are outweighed by the benefits of the reverse stock split. This excerpt taken from the PRVT 8-K filed Oct 16, 2009. 9.1 General. (a) Each of the Parties shall use reasonable commercial efforts to cause such Partys representations and warranties to be true on and as of the Closing Date; and to perform such Partys covenants hereunder; and to cause the conditions to any others performance of its obligations hereunder to occur in a timely manner. (b) In case at any time prior to or after the Closing any further action is necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, each of the Parties will take such further action (including the execution and delivery of such further instruments and
48
documents) as any other Party reasonably may request, all at the sole cost and expense of the requesting Party (unless the requesting Party is entitled to indemnification therefor under Section 10 below). Sellers acknowledge and agree that, from and after the Closing, Buyer will be entitled to possession of all documents, books, records, agreements, and financial data relating to the Company. Buyer shall have the right, prior to the Closing, to access books, records, documents, employees and clients as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in light of the circumstances to enable Buyer to conduct its pre-closing due diligence examination of the Company. Buyer and the Company agree that Sellers shall have the right following the Closing to have reasonable access to such documents, books, records and financial data for the purpose of concluding their involvement in the business of the Company prior to the Closing Date, to comply with or enforce their rights and obligations under this Agreement and applicable securities, Tax, employment or other laws and regulations, and to defend themselves in any litigation. 9.2 Litigation Support. In the event and for so long as any Party actively is contesting or defending against any third party action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, charge, complaint, claim or demand in connection with (a) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or (b) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act, or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Company or the transactions contemplated hereby, each of the other Parties will reasonably cooperate with the contesting or defending Party and his, her or its counsel in the contest or defense, reasonably make available his, her or its personnel, and provide such testimony and access to his, her or its books and records, as shall be reasonably necessary in connection with the contest or defense, all at the sole cost and expense of the contesting or defending Party (unless the contesting or defending Party is entitled to indemnification with respect thereto under Article 10 below). 9.3 Restrictive Covenants. Sellers acknowledge and agree that substantial and valuable assets which belong to the Company include the trade names, Confidential Information, relationships with Clients and Suppliers and Prospective Clients and Suppliers, and goodwill of the Company, and that the relationships which the Company has with their employees and Clients and Suppliers are significant business relationships necessary for the Company to continue to operate its business. Sellers further acknowledge and agree that, following the Closing, such Sellers will continue to have access to the aforesaid assets and relationships by virtue of continued employment with the Company following the Closing. Sellers further acknowledge and agree that each of Buyer and the Company have a reasonable, necessary and legitimate business interest in protecting the aforesaid assets and relationships and businesses, that the covenants set forth below are reasonable and necessary in order to protect these legitimate business interests, and that the covenants set forth below are a material inducement for Buyer to enter into the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In addition, Sellers acknowledge and agree that monetary damages will not be an adequate remedy for any material breach of any of their covenants contained in this Section 9.3, and that irreparable injury may result to Buyer and the Company or their successors in interest, in the event of any such material breach. Reference is made to Section 10.6 hereof relating to the rights of Buyer and the Company and their successors to equitable relief for breaches of this Section 9.3. Accordingly, each Seller individually agrees to the following restrictions which are specifically applicable to such Seller, effective as of the Closing Date: (a) Each Seller will not use, or grant to any Person the right to use at any time, the Trademarks or Domain Names used or held by the Company, or any similar names, juxtapositions or derivations thereof, without the prior written consent of Buyer.
49
(b) Each Seller will not, directly or indirectly, use, or willfully disclose to any Person, any Confidential Information of the Company or Buyer (provided, in the latter case, such Seller became familiar with such Confidential Information during his or her employment with the Company), except (A) in the Ordinary Course of Business on behalf of the Company or Buyer, as the case may be, (B) with the prior written consent of the Company or Buyer, as the case may be, or (C) to the extent necessary to comply with law or the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction, in which event such Seller shall notify Buyer as promptly as practicable (and, if possible, prior to the making of such disclosure). (c) Each Seller will not, directly or indirectly, within the Restricted Territory, solicit the provision of any Companys Business from, or otherwise induce the termination or non-renewal of any Companys Business to, any Client or Supplier or Prospective Client or Supplier of the Company or Buyer (provided, in the latter case, that such Seller had substantial contact or became familiar with such Client or Supplier or Prospective Client or Supplier during his or her employment with the Company), except in the Ordinary Course of Business on behalf of the Company or Buyer. The restrictions contained in this subsection (c) shall terminate three (3) years after the Closing Date. (d) Each Seller hereby agrees to refrain from Carrying on a Business which provides any Companys Business (as conducted as of the Closing Date) within the Restricted Territory. The restrictions contained in this subsection (d) shall terminate co-extensively with the termination periods specified in subsection (c). The term Carrying on a Business shall mean to engage in any such business as a sole proprietor, partner, member of a limited liability company, officer, director, employee, consultant, contractor, stockholder or similar capacity. It is expressly agreed that the foregoing is not intended to restrict or prohibit, and shall not restrict or prohibit, the ownership by such Seller of stock or other securities of a publicly-held corporation in which he or she does not possess beneficial ownership of more than 5% of the voting stock of such corporation or participate in any management or advisory capacity. (e) Each Seller will not, directly or indirectly, solicit any other employee, consultant or independent contractor of the Company or Buyer, or otherwise induce any employee, consultant or independent contractor to terminate his or her relationship, or to breach an employment agreement, with Buyer, the Company, any Company Subsidiary or any other Buyer subsidiary. The restrictions contained in this subsection (e) shall terminate after the later of three (3) years after the Closing Date or three years from the termination of such Sellers employment with Buyer, the Company or any Affiliate. (f) For the avoidance of doubt;
50
(i) each Seller acknowledges that if such Seller engages in any conduct which violates this Section 9.3, such conduct shall constitute a breach of this Agreement regardless of whether such conduct constitutes a violation of his or her Employment Agreement; (ii) Buyer acknowledges that if any Seller engages in any conduct which violates this Section 9.3, Buyers recourse shall be against such Seller and not against any other Seller who has not engaged in such conduct; and (iii) references to the Company includes any successor thereto, including Amalco. (g) The Parties hereby agree to jointly elect to have Subsection 56.4(3)(c) of the ITA apply to the transactions contemplated herein. 9.4 Third Party Consents. The Parties will use reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as possible after the Closing Date any third party written approval or consent to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereunder where such approval or other consent is either (i) required to be obtained at or prior to Closing but waived, or (ii) required to be obtained after Closing. 9.5 Discharge of Certain Obligations. Effective as of the Closing Date Sellers shall have caused the Company to have paid or otherwise satisfied in full all transaction costs incurred by the Company and the Company Subsidiaries in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation the fees of any representatives, agents, professional advisors, brokers or other intermediaries. This excerpt taken from the PRVT 10-Q filed May 15, 2009. General Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to impairment of the library of photographs and videos and other long lived assets, allowances for bad debt, income taxes and contingencies and litigation. Accounts receivable and sales related to certain products are, in accordance with industry practice, subject to distributors right of return to unsold items. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Management periodically reviews such estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of unexpected changes in trends.
